In The Wee Hours

By Trish Hubschman

February 2022

 

It’s dark and quiet.

Too cold to get out of bed.

But I can’t sleep.

My mind is keeping me awake.

I’m thinking and pondering, worrying,

Trying to figure so many things out.

What I’m writing, does it flow?

What’s going on out there,

Yesterday, today, tomorrow.

It’s making me edgy.

I need to relax.

I roll onto my side.

Close my eyes.

Try to put a black-out on my Brain.

I sing songs in my head.

Nothing works.

I’m not going to win.

I lay on my back again

And let my mind do what it will.

I keep my eyes closed, just in case.

I still hope to doze off.

It’s too early to get up.

I’ll just have to lay here and let myself go.

Sometimes I fall asleep.

Sometimes I don’t.
